Coastal jewelry is having a major moment this summer, but it’s evolved far beyond classic puka shells. This season’s take on the trend feels more elevated, bringing in seaside-inspired details that can easily work with everything from vacation outfits to everyday looks.
Fortunately, Anthropologie has plenty of jewelry that puts a sophisticated spin on the coastal trend. We rounded up three of our favorite necklaces: a colorful layered set, a sleek shell pendant, and a modern pearl necklace. Whether you prefer something eye-catching or understated, there’s an option here for you.
Threaded Layered Necklace Set, $30 (was $54) at Anthropologie

The Threaded Layered Necklace Set comes in five colors, ranging from easy neutrals to brighter shades like blue and red. Each set includes two necklaces designed to be worn together or separately. One features a longer pendant decorated with playful motifs like fish, shells, and pearls, while the shorter necklace sits closer to the collarbone with a colorful crystal fringe.
Made with 14-karat gold-plated brass, stone, cubic zirconia, glass, and polyester thread, the set has a lobster clasp and plenty of texture. Since the necklaces already create a layered effect, they work especially well with simple, solid-colored tops that let the charms and crystals stand out.
One shopper called the set “so cute,” writing, “I love this set together but also as separates! I have been wearing it nonstop!” Another described it as “pretty and fun,” adding, “This necklace is a staple piece for my jewelry collection — a simple and easy way to add to your outfit.”

For a more understated take on the trend, the Metal Shell Pendant Necklace features a wide, fan-shaped seashell pendant. Five delicate teardrop charms hang along the bottom edge, giving the simple silhouette a little extra movement and detail.
The necklace comes in gold-tone or silver-tone finishes and is made with 14-karat gold-plated brass with a lobster clasp. It’s easy to wear on its own for a sleek, minimalist look, or layer it with thinner chains when you want to create a more personalized combination.
Pearl Duet Necklace, $30 (was $48) at Anthropologie

The Pearl Duet Necklace offers a fresh take on the traditional pearl necklace. Rather than using one continuous strand, it combines two contrasting sections: a delicate strand of tiny faux pearls that rests along the collarbone and a sleek chain on the other side. Made with faux pearls and 14-karat gold-plated brass, it has a chic yet wearable look.
The result feels modern, classic, and easy to wear every day. It looks refined on its own, but it can also be layered with a simple chain or dainty pendant for a curated look without feeling overly busy.
